New Episode - The Blocking Room
This isn't just a podcast, it's where visual storytelling gets deconstructed, frame by frame. In our debut episode, we sit down with Hollywood cinematographer John DeRango, the visual mind behind films such as Flight Risk (starring Mel Gibson), Fatman, Small Town Crime, and projects for Disney, Lionsgate, Warner Bros., MTV, Paramount, Discovery,
From indie roots to lighting some of Hollywood's biggest sets, John shares how he frames emotion, builds scenes from scratch, and collaborates with directors to bring scripts to life, shot by shot. Whether you're a filmmaker, DP, or just love cinema, this episode is a masterclass in storytelling through the lens, packed with gems you won't find anywhere else.
The Blocking Room is where you'll discover the secrets behind your favourite films and shows, and the people shaping the way we see stories on screen. First Episode drops on Friday at 14:00 UK time. Don't just watch... see how it's done.
